The Company Shares Buyback wlil provide flexibility to achieve efficient capital structure which allows the Company to increase EPS and ROE.
PERIOD OF TRANSACTION
The Company Shares Buyback will be undertaken after approval by the EGMS is obtained. Based on Rule XI.B.2, the period for Company Shares Buyback shall be a maximum of 18 (eighteen) months effective as of the date of the EGMS that approves the proposed plan of Company Shares Buyback.
The Company’s management may terminate the Company Shares Buyback program at any time before the period of 18 (eighteen) months elapses, if the management of the Company deems necessary.
